I know, its illogical. But some are defending the title. The title was picked for an attraction of readership alone. It's not the correct title to use.

Well then go sue the writers or complain there.
Here, this is going nowhere I guess.

Well, subsim re-posted it to their front page. Which essentially is advertising the articles to subsim readers. I want to know subsim's stance on the issue. It's important to me, and whether or not I will spend anymore of my time here.

This board has some mighty-fine members with big hearts and minds. We also have some nutcases (which we hold dearly and pet them daily) - but over all this is a great place compared to the hell-holes you find elsewhere in the internetz tubes.

I don't know anyone here who would disrespect German soldiers for being a part of Hitlers manic ego-trip. But I'd rather speak for myself, just wanted to share my opinion after being a part of this mess for 10 years (OMG?)

I've never experienced anti German sentiments here. The site owner himself has travelled several times to Germany to meet with Subsim members so I don't believe he has any anti German feelings either.

You never saw the light house shirt right?

It's not really 'anti-German'.
More like 'WTF are you looking at'?


Which makes as much sense as this thread.


Veterns from all over this thing we call Earth Salute our Enemies for thier Service.
I even respect the terrorists for thier commitment.
They are Soldiers at the very lest and that earns my respect.

I think, given the main games this forums represent, that we hold the German Kreigsmarine in some form of respect.

That is a true statement.

It's a way to sell news. Nothing more.
I'll hope Skybird comments as I love his thoughts on things such as this.


Subsim just posts the news and links. Others create those.

j/k Sky

As I've already said, you're preaching to the choir. How's the response from Huff Post?

Lets get more accurate.
It is the wreck of a Nazi submarine, built by slave labour in Bremen by the Nazi government and the Nazi military to fight in the Nazi ideological war of racial supremacy to create living room in the east by removing the subhumans to make way for the Aryan master race.
It happens to contain the remains of some dead german seamen.

Quote:
In the last days of the war leading members of the military became the leaders of the government and asked for peace.
Don't talk such utter crap, look at that government.
Doenitz ...Nazi party badge in gold
Speer... Mr. slave labour, Nazi party badge in gold
Backe.... SS, starving the Ukraine "Many tens of millions of people in this country will become superfluous and will die", Nazi party badge in gold.
Seldte...SA obergruppenfurher, Nazi party badge in gold.
Dorpmuller...please send more trains to Belsen.
Jodl..... commando order, commissar order, shipping Danish jews to the camps, Nazi party badge in gold.
Keitel.... one of only two people to be honorary Nazi party members.
Von Griem....right back to the beerhall putsch days, Nazi party badge in gold
Stuckart...SS Obergruppenfuhrer, the bloody Wannsee conference of all things, plus the wonderful Nuremburg laws, Nazi party since 1922.
Then
Von Krosig...not actually a Nazi or a member of the military

Can you spot any of those leading military people who became the government who were not already in the government?
